MATCH SUMMARY
Villa are beaten by top four and promotion chasing side QPR despite scoring twice at Loftus Road. The result leaves Villa three points adrift of safety at the bottom of the table but scarcely reflects the pressure Villa had placed the promotion hopefuls under for the majority of the match as they continued their improvement under Vic Crowe’s leadership.
